KALs Coming Up




I've missed up dating last month on KALs but here's a list of some coming up for inspiration and a few just starting or started in case you really like them:



Twilight Waltz MKAL





Twilight Waltz MKAL
 Twilight Waltz MKAL by bunnymuff  
 There is nothing quite like a good waltz and as Miss Phryne Fisher says “My mother lost all reason when she was waltzed.” Come join us for a leisurely MKAL…we will be knitting a crescent shaped shawl in preparation of the New Year. An elegant shawl, easy to make as large as you like and fringed, if that is what you desire. Knit in Nov. and Dec and we can waltz in the New Year! Kits are available from the Yarn Fairy (see pattern page for link)
  Release of Clues:
17 November 24 November 1 December 8 December 



Seawall Storm




  Seawall Storm by Webster Street Knittery 
 Seawall Fibres 
 SEAWALL STORM is an asymmetrical crescent shaped shawl worked from the top down. Inspired by the beautiful hand dyed yarns of Seawall Fibres, this shawl seeks to create in yarn the imagery described on the Seawall Fibres labels – the wave battered rocky shores, the dramatic tides and the constantly changing colors of the watery landscape. Alternating areas of garter and mesh join into an organic, undulating vision. 
  KAL starts November 1st and ends date to be announced
